Method

Espresso Preparation

1

Start by measuring 18 grams of espresso coffee beans using a kitchen scale for accuracy.

2

Grind the coffee beans to a fine consistency using an espresso grinder. The grind should be fine but not powdery.

3

Prepare your espresso machine by ensuring it's clean and preheated. Place the portafilter on the scale and add the ground coffee, leveling it off with a flat edge.

4

Tamp the coffee grounds evenly and firmly using a tamper to create a compact puck.

5

Lock the portafilter into the espresso machine and start the brewing process.

6

Allow the espresso to brew for approximately 25-30 seconds. You should aim for about 60 ml of espresso output for a double shot.
